Lavatera × clementii ‘Burgundy Wine’ Description

Lavatera × clementii ‘Burgundy Wine’ is a fast-growing shrubby mallow with grey-green, lobed foliage and numerous funnel-shaped flowers in rich rose-pink shades marked by darker burgundy veins. The display begins in summer and can continue well into autumn. Mature plants generally reach around 1.5 to 2 metres high and wide, making them useful for quickly adding height and colour to a mixed border. Grow in full sun in fertile, well-drained soil. The stems can be brittle in exposed positions and prolonged winter wet may cause losses, so shelter and drainage are useful in Irish gardens. Prune firmly in spring after the worst frost has passed, cutting back old growth to encourage vigorous new flowering shoots.
